In Pictures: Limerick family take home 'Liam MacCarthy' of farming

A LIMERICK family have brought home another All-Ireland title that has been described as the Liam McCarthy of farming. 

Ornua and the National Dairy Council have announced the Macnamara family, from Knockainey - supplying Kerry Agribusiness - as the overall winner of the prestigious 2023 NDC and Kerrygold Quality Milk Awards.

They also took home the Farm Infrastructure Award.

The special ceremony took place in Ballymaloe House in Co Cork last Tuesday, where a total of 14 farming families from seven counties, representing 14 dairy co-operatives, were acknowledged for excellence in dairy farming and milk production.
